Background: Members of the Maf family of basic region/leucine zipper (bZIP) transcription factors affect transcription in either a positive or negative fashion, depending on their particular protein partner and the context of the target promoter.c-Maf (Maf-2) and the closely related family members Neural retina leucine zipper (Nrl), L-Maf and Krml1/MafB (Maf-1) all bind to T-MARE sites and are implicated in a wide variety of developmental and physiologic roles. The three small Maf family proteins MafF, MafG and MafK are components of NF-E2 which function as heterodimers with the large tissue restricted subunit of NF-E2 called p45, and furthermore are implicated in the transcriptional regulation of many erythroid-specific genes. MafG is ubiquitously expressed, with highest expression in the VMS, heart and skeletal muscle; its expression is induced in response to stress. MafK, also designated NF-E2 p18, is primarily expressed during development in mesenchymal and hematopoietic cells and neurons. MafK heterodimerizes with NF-E2 and various CNC proteins. MafF is most abundantly expressed in the lung and is thought to compensate for loss of function mutations in MafG and MafK.
